I would recommend this place as a solo traveler. Place to close to walking to distant to most of the tour sights. there's a 711 right across from her place. it's a great experience to stay in a original thai home. she spoke enough english for communication to take place, which is very important in thailand. Also helped me write few of the places i wanted to visit in thai so that way i can simply show that to a driver or tuk tuk person. nice area. would do it again if i come back.
